bantam microRNA is a negative regulator of the Drosophila decapentaplegic pathway

Decapentaplegic (Dpp), the Drosophila homolog of the vertebrate bone morphogenetic protein (BMP2/4), is crucial for patterning and growth in many developmental contexts. The Dpp pathway is regulated at many different levels to exquisitely control its activity. We show that bantam (ban), a microRNA,...
